The BUGBEAR appears as a rhinoceros; a poor peasant stands before him.
PEASANT.
May it please your honor—
BUGBEAR.
There must be justice, my friend.
PEASANT.
I cannot pay just now.
BUGBEAR.
Be still, you have lost the case; the law demands money and your punishment; consequently your land must be sold. There is nothing else to be done and this is for the sake of justice.
[Exit peasant.]
